Thanks Mike, Grant & Alex for the replies.

I am hoping to find a set of NOS cables, they must be on someones shelve somewhere?

I have searched at some of the listed suppliers but not found a suitable one yet.

If all fails, I will have to have a set made or adapted, possibly reusing some of the components.

I recently found a sail maker (Yacht rigging manufacturer) that can make up brake cables. The do have some ends, just not the special components. That means they can crimp the cable ends to a standard. They stock long stainless UNF threaded ends and the inner cable. This approach may not be what Hanno seeks, but may help other people.

I was about to have a set made when Jaap Rietveld found me a set in his stock. They are a wee bit longer than the originals but have the correct ends so they will work.

He has more so contact Jaap if you need any: https://www.milweb.net/go/rietveld/
